Matt Good concerts make me happy. Obvs. Also, a delicious cup of coffee

Here's the setlist from Dawson Creek On Nights Like Tonight Avalanche Volcanoes Great Whales of the Sea Born Losers Load Me Up Last Parade A Silent Army In the Trees Black Helicopter Blue Skies Over Bad Lands Apparitions Giant Weapon I'm a Window Some douche standing right behind me insisted on requesting white walls after every song, and it was funny as I turned around to leave he had this utter look of shock that the song wasn't played ;) I thought that Volcanoes sounded exceptionally good live, and it was great to see Avalanche and BSOBL. Would have liked to have seen Empty's but everything else that I expected/wanted was on there so I was quite pleased.

VOTE OVER

THREAD CLOSED

damn, called into work. New round will be posted tonight.

Fidelity - Regina Spektor

Couldn't have said it better myself. Although I'd kill to see Man of Action

Street Spirit (Fade Out) - Radiohead

My top 5 (off the top of my head) Gangs of New York There Will Be Blood Anchorman The Escapist The Bourne Identity I wanted to say American Beauty, but apparently it was released in 1999.

I'm a Window - Matthew Good

I really like the version of Apparitions from this show. Last time the rooms version of Apparitions lost 29-6 to Apparitions, so maybe this time we'll have apparitions vs apparitions (massey hall) instead, just to mix things up a bit.

Originally I came up with 142 songs for the 2009 MG(B) elimination, so I added my two favourite pre-LOTGA tracks (Dancing Invisible and The Ocean) to the competition to get a nice even 144. However, instead of these two songs, I thought maybe we should add the two songs from the Massey Hall album that we think would be better than the original version. Voting for this bonus round will close Wednesday at noon along with Round 1 C. Not included in this vote are songs we've already voted on in round one or songs that already have a second version included in the competition.
